Thanksgiving Card 2010










I went to Stampers Ink last week and picked up this adorable Riley stamp. This will be my Thanksgiving card this year and also the card that we will do in our class next month. I found the perfect "fall leaves" paper at Hobby Lobby and used my copics to color the image. Let me know what you think! Mel

Free Vintage Image















I recently bought a book called "The Journal of the Century" that was published in 1976. This book is just full of the coolest images. I am offering this image free to anyone who may want to use it in their artwork. I used this image in a mini book that I am making for my daughter for Christmas. I am planning to post some more images in the next few weeks. Let me know if you copy the image so I'll know what kind of images you like. Mel

Tim Holtz Tag














Recently I bought some Tim Holtz stamps and embellishments.....I was inspired to create this tag. I really like the hanging bead embellishmen and the metal butterfly that I found at Hobby Lobby. Click on the picture to get a larger view. Let me know what you think!! Mel
















Hi everyone......I can't believe that it has been a month since I posted last. I'm still struggling with my foot and last week they sent me for an MRI. I should hear something soon.

I made these quick and easy Halloween cards last week. Had to keep it simple so I could sit in my recliner and color the images with my copic markers. I heat embossed the spiderweb with black detail embossing powder, embossed the orange paper with my Cuttlebug empossing folder and the "Trick or Treat" came from a Makaing Memories foam stamp set that I found at Tuesday Morning.

Hope your Halloween cards are coming along.....don't wait too long.
